I and many others only ever have trace amounts of ketones in their urine. The higher level of ketones does not mean that you are burning more fat etc, a low level is quite acceptable. The ketostix only tell half the story. There was a good article in the GO-Diet about this which I have reproduced in my journal. If you look at the index on the front page it will take you directly there.

Although not always the case, if you have high levels of ketones showing then it could be because you are not drinking enough fluids.
